VRYYF has more than doubled for me in just a few weeks. They just hired a new Prez, and the market seems to like her. Focused on aggressive growth. It's my riskiest play but in very early and worth a look.

Bassett Furniture just got a strong buy rating from Zack's, broke out this week on high volume and then issued a special dividend Friday. https://investors.bassettfurniture....assett-announces-declaration-special-dividend

And then UHAUL is just a slow, steady riser. Their EPS last quarter was $13.50/share and projected to be even higher this quarter...

Your Uhaul call was a really good one, wish I had listened to you back when you called it out the first time.

I mean I'm new to this so I wouldn't have listened to me either, lol. But it seemed like an insanely low risk/decent reward play. I'll keep watching housing news but plan on holding for at least a year. It's still trading where it was in early 2015 and its EPS back then was around $3.50.

Finally peaked over the $300 mark on my Robinhood play money. Considering I've only put $80 into it, that's a 277% gain over the last year for me. PLUG has really paid off for me. Bought a few shares last year at $7 and some more later on at $14, it's steadily risen up to $30 now.

TSLA goes into the S&P on Monday meaning that a lot of funds have to own it. Big funds often put in orders at the close.
So, that is TS (time and sales) that it is pointing to. The person filtered out any sales under 5,000 shares so no pesky retail stuff. At the close (15:00, must be central time) 69 million shares of TSLA went through at the high of the day (695) with all of the index funds scurrying to get in.

In what kind of alternate universe am I in?

On a day when Democrats in a surprise obtain control of both chambers of Congress as well as the presidency, and rioters storm capitol hill and briefly take over causing our legislators to have to be evacuated, the stock market is UP.

Let's be honest, this isn't really a stock market anymore. Market risk is no longer a consideration.

You're in a world with zero interest rates, and loose monetary and fiscal policy. There is just lots of money out there, and nowhere else to put it.

I picked up a little GME at 10 for fun. Everyone was convinced there would be a short squeeze, I just liked gaming sector + Ryan Cohen (Chewy founder) getting on board. Welp...

Yeah, my Plug purchase was back when it was less than $10 a share and purely just because I'd come across some article in my Google feed that said it was a good buy. I'm happy how that one turned out. Now I'm trying to stumble across another low dollar stock with the same potential.
